Crossing the seas of inner turmoil.
lyrics
The river of life flows on, never ending,
spinning and twirling, unfirling a tail.
The tale of a wise man who sailed down that river.
Down through the estury, out to the sea.
No captain or crew, just a man and the ocean
facing the elements, facing the west.
Carrying only a vision to guide him
to a place where his vision was put to the test.
Here was a man with hope for our glory.
Here was a man who'd seen sorrow and joy.
Here was a man with a heart full of gladness.
A handful of sadness cast out to the winds.
All alone he stands
quietly making plans
holding in his hands a dream
that no one understands.
Caught in a world with no future,
held by a vow with no love.
Trapped between what is and what could have been,
what should have been.
Who do you hurt? Who do you save?
How do you try to explain?
The easy way out just became
the hardest path to follow.
Something must change.
Time and tides roll swiftly by,
washing the trials and troubles from his weary mind,
only to be replaced by a tidal wave of retribution,
wraught by once familiar hands.
On the horizon: New life from a new land.
Hope springs eternal in his mind.
Riding high on the wake of his problems,
he guides the boat ashore.
New life, new land, new dreams, new direction.
New eyes, new heart, new plans, new expression.
Finding the answers, unlocking the doors.
Planting the dreams and watching them grow.
Playing his plays, standing his ground,
Taking control without making a sound.
Fashioning colours from the oceans of grey.
A port in a storm for the cold and afraid.
And no longer needed, his ship sailed blazing
like the longboats of centurys passed.
And all his denial, his guilt, fear and lies,
are all safely secured to the mast.
Now he stands on the shores of the new, looking oldwards,
at a fast fading memorys light.
Can it be that the time is upon us?
Can it be that it's time to move on?
The Long Island metal band's third album etches arena-sized hooks into their jagged compositions, deftly balancing experimental and poppy inclinations. Bandcamp Album of the Day May 12, 2022
